[Bug 1363421] Re: Unity Doesn't Start on 14.10 System

 

Saw some comment on the development forum that nomodeset corrected a
similar problem.  This parameter does not correct on my system.  Adding
some additional information, anything else needed?

  Unity Doesn't Start on 14.10 System

Bug description:
  Been having problems getting any 14.10 build (Gnome and Unity) to boot
  on this desktop.  Submitting problem report on Unity since seems
  easist to document.  I downloaded the Ubuntu 14.10 daily build dated
  8/29/14 and went through the install process without any problem.
  After completion of the install, doing the first boot of the system,
  and the login screen my desktop background is displayed with desktop
  ICONs.   There is no Ubuntu banner at the top of the screen or any
  Unity launch bar on the left.  My only option was to ctl-alt-f1 and
  build/save a bug report which I using to report under the working
  14.04 system on this same desktop.
